Chapter 267: Annihilape!! Double Evolution!
As everyone knows, Mankey needs to reach at least Level 28 to evolve into Primeape.
But for Primeape to evolve into Annihilape, there is no level requirement.
There is only one condition.
Extreme Rage.
This condition can be simple, or it can be extremely difficult.
But for Kenji's monkey, staying angry was as easy as breathing...
As if confirming Kenji's somewhat absurd yet perfectly logical guess...
Just as the referee hesitated, about to raise his flag and declare Primeape unable to battle.
Suddenly, the body of the fallen Primeape began to glow with a blinding white light.
The intensity of this light was even stronger than the previous evolution!!!
"This... this is..."
The referee froze, flag raised mid-air, mouth agape.
On the other side, Bartel's eyes widened.
Evolution Energy!!!
It's evolution energy!!!!!
It's f*cking evolution energy again!!!!!
Less than half a minute ago—barely ten seconds after evolving from Mankey—the Primeape was glowing with evolution energy again!!!!
"What the f*ck..." Bartel couldn't help but curse, staring incredulously at the glowing Primeape.
It hadn't fainted from exhaustion!
It had literally raged itself to death!!
This was the first time in all his years as a trainer that Bartel had witnessed a Pokémon evolving twice in a matter of minutes.
From Mankey straight to Annihilape!!!
Bartel had a Primeape in his main team. This Level 52 Primeape on the field was its offspring.
His main Primeape was already Level 71.
But even at Level 71, it hadn't achieved the final evolution into Annihilape.
Although Primeape was an explosive, short-tempered Pokémon...
Getting so angry that it transcended its physical form was extremely difficult.
Some Primeapes, no matter how high their level, might never evolve into Annihilape in their entire lives.
But for Kenji's monkey, getting angry enough to die was as easy as breathing.
Whoosh...
The white light slowly faded.
A sound like burning flames echoed across the battlefield.
When the light vanished completely, a new Pokémon stood there. Its body was ash-gray, with wild white hair flowing freely in the wind. Its eyes glowed crimson red.
Breaking the shackles of the flesh with extreme rage!!
Annihilape!! Has arrived!!!
"HuyAAA!!!! —"
Annihilape let out a roar that sent shivers down everyone's spine.
"Huo..."
Bartel's Primeape, previously full of disdain, now let out a low, uneasy growl.
At the sound of Primeape's voice, Annihilape's crimson eyes slowly turned... locking onto Primeape.
BANG!!!! —
SWISH!!!! —
Without waiting for a command, Annihilape launched itself forward with terrifying speed. Its target was clear: its pre-evolved form, Primeape!!!
Annihilape raised a fist. The ash-gray fist was instantly engulfed in a blood-red light that burned like raging fire. Dark energy wrapped around its entire body as it charged.
Like a berserk prehistoric beast.
Rage Fist!!!!
Perhaps still in shock from the double evolution, Bartel failed to issue a command immediately.
And Primeape seemed frozen in fear, staring blankly as Annihilape rushed toward it, terror filling its eyes.
Only when Annihilape's fist was inches from Primeape's face did Bartel snap out of it.
"Primeape!!! Dodge it!!"
But it was too late.
BOOM!!!! —
Annihilape's fist connected solidly, smashing straight into Primeape's face.
This Rage Fist, fueled by Annihilape's extreme anger, carried horrifying power.
With an explosive sound, Primeape's body was launched backward like a cannonball.
It flew across the arena, smashing into the energy barrier before crashing to the ground with a thud.
"Primeape is unable to battle!! Man... Annihilape wins the match!!!"
One-Shot!!!
With just a single punch, Annihilape had instantly KO'd a Primeape whose level far exceeded its own!!
The power of this punch rivaled even Slaking's blows.
If Annihilape were at the same level as Beedrill, in terms of pure Attack power, even Beedrill might not be its match.
Of course, such a terrifying strike came with a cost.
After throwing the punch, Annihilape slowly lowered its arm. The red glow on its body began to fade.
This meant its rage was subsiding.
For other Pokémon, calming down might be a good thing.
But for Kenji's Annihilape, anger was the primal source of its power.
It was an entity born from transcending the flesh through rage. When the rage subsided, its power dropped significantly.
In human terms, it got hit with a debuff: Weakness.
Because it had discarded its physical body, the injuries Mankey sustained before evolving had vanished along with the flesh.
Even its depleted stamina had been fully restored thanks to the Bloodthirster (lifesteal from the KO punch).
